We have come a long way since the first Women’s Day in 1911 demanded the right to vote and hold public office, and it’s been a long time since we’ve seen such a public debate about the rights of women and workplace equality.
The world is not yet post-#MeToo or #TimesUp, but the strength of these movements doesn’t look like abating. This extraordinary movement is both necessary and overdue, forcing difficult conversations about the chasm between theories of legally mandated equality and the practical, lived experience of women. But we also cannot forget the privilege of the predominantly white women from developed countries speaking out.
